Legal claims defining the scope of protection, as filed with the USPTO.

1

1. A support system for the manufacture of dental restorations, comprising: a measurement device for determining the tooth data, a data processing device including a camera for capturing a tooth image, the data processing device comprising a first reception module and the measurement device comprising a first transmission module, for direct transmission of the tooth data from the measurement device to the data processing device, an allocation module integrated into the data processing device for allocating the tooth data to the tooth image, and a second transmission module integrated into the data processing device for transmission of the tooth image having the tooth data allocated thereto to a data processing device of a dental laboratory.

2

2. The support system according to claim 1 , wherein, using the measurement device, automatic data acquisition of at least a part of the tooth data is performed.

3

3. The support system according to claim 1 , wherein the camera is integrated into the data processing device.

4

4. The support system according to claim 1 , wherein the data processing device is designed as mobile data processing device.

5

5. The support system according to claim 1 , wherein the measurement device and the data processing device transmit the tooth data and the tooth image wirelessly.

6

6. The support system according to claim 1 , wherein, for data exchange from the data processing device to the measurement device and/or for data matching, the measurement device comprises a second reception module.

7

7. The support system according to claim 1 , wherein the second transmission module of the data processing device for data transmission to the data processing device of the dental laboratory is designed for remote data transmission.

8

8. The support system according to claim 5 , wherein the measurement device and the data processing device transmit the tooth data and the tooth image wirelessly using at least one selected from the group consisting of: NFC communication, Bluetooth and WLAN.

9

9. The support system according to claim 7 , wherein the remote data transmission is a mobile phone network.

10

10. The support system according to claim 1 , wherein the tooth data comprises tooth color and color coordinates.

11

11. The support system according to claim 4 , wherein the mobile data processing device is a mobile phone or a tablet.
